Designs and techniques

Sue and Andrew have developed an ever broadening range of earthenware containers with apractical use and an overarching essential, that they be decorated in colourful, fluid designs. TheJewel Range in particular is a flamboyant riot of colour whilst other designs have their roots in thenatural world of flora and fauna, using influences and experiences from around the world. (ScarletTiger is a particularly colourful British moth).The Lings want their customers to pick up their creations and read the ‘story’ in the design that hasflowed freely from Sue’s artistic imagination and whilst Sue creates her magic from her designs,Andrew is driven by developing precise hand-made moulds from which emerge perfectly fired ceramicpieces.
